homes, and whose adoption was favored by his legal

interest of a seven-year-old male child to be
placed for adoption into the home of a pair of
adult male homosexual lovers."(Utne 58) Three
years of searching for a qualified heterosexual
couple failed. This and many other similar cases
have denied children a family by ignoring many
qualified homosexuals. With this being an age when
people are supposedly more open-minded, why is it
that gays are treated this way just because of
their sexual orientation? ...

within their own class for leadership in order to
be able to construct oppositional conceptions of

Critical understanding is dependent on three
mutually supportive conditions. One being free
spaces, where workers and organic individuals come
together, serving as a reference grou ...

I Am One Of These People They Generally Refer To As A Mature Student It Is Too Bad That This Term Doesnt Mean What Suggests, - 420 words
I am one of these people they generally refer to
as a "mature student". It is too bad that this
term doesn't mean what suggests, that I study in a
more mature way than people who have not been out
of school as long as I have. It simply means that
I have not been in a formal classroom for quite a
while -- in my case for more than twenty years.
There are advantages and disadvantages to having
this gap in one's education. One advantage is that
it does give me some perspective to see that
education has undergone some changes since those
long ago years when I was in school. Two of these
changes in curriculum and a change in teachers.
